i have this same problem! I have a 145A alt., a kicker ZX750.1 amp and 3 10 inch subs, it sucks my battery dry and forces my amp into protect mode which drives me crazy. I have a red top optima, and 4 gauge wire. any suggestions??
Thats probably your subs pulling more power than the amp can put out.
